Gala Water Ancient | 13 - 16 oz. Wool

Mill: Loch
Weight: 16 oz.
Notes:
The names "Gala Water" and "Gallowater" seem to be interchangeable and which is used seems to depend on the source. The 'Old Gallowater' first appeared in the records of Wilson's of Bannockburn in 1793. They were not above recycling patterns that had outlived their original usefulness and to celebrate the Battle of Waterloo (1815), they reduced the size of the sett and named it Wellington in honour of the victorious Duke. Perhaps by public demand - or commercial acumen - in 1819 they revisited the Old Gallowater, introduced a red band and a thin white stripe, and named it the New Gallowater. A brighter version was first woven in modern times in about 1946 for a Graham A Usher of Edinburgh.

This is a universal tartan anyone may wear.
